As a child, the ThunderCats of the 80's were the bomb. Rewatching it... it was awful. It was TV for ADD kids.

"We're going to to the place to do the thing!"

"Are we going to the place to do the thing?"

"Yes, we're going to the place to do the thing!"

"Where should we do the thing?"

"At the place!"

"We're at the place! Now do the Thing!"

Good grief it was hard to rewatch any of this as an adult.

The first episode and premise of the 2011 series was awesome. The animation felt very Avatar: Last Air Bender. The entire setup seemed like it could have been deeply entertaining and nuanced. And then it went to complete shit. They set the stage for some interesting story lines, then just proceeded to shit all over the place. The animation went downhill. The story was bland and uninteresting. Everything just went straight to garbage. I was so displeased.

The 2011 series was mishandled into cancelation.

I think ThunderCats holds up better than the original He-Man.
